Hi,

there is way of configuration has been updated in newer version. In that case, you may see slapd.d directory under /etc/openldap folder. You may use *ldapadd* to do the same.

If you are familiar with slapd.conf then you can move slapd.d directory somewhere and copy slapd.conf from /usr/share/openldap-servers directory.

if you will not slapd.conf anywhere, please use rpm -ql openldap-servers

May it will help you :P

Hi,

I am running openldap version 2.4.23 on CentOS 6.5, there is no
slapd.conf, according to the document it is deprecated. But when I run
slapadd, it got an error.

# slapadd -v -l /root/backup.ldif
could not stat config file "/etc/openldap/slapd.conf": No such file or
directory (2)
slapadd: bad configuration file!

Now I am confused, if the slapd.conf is deprecated why the slapadd
sdepends on it? How can I generate the slapd.conf, or copy a template
of slpad.conf?

Thank you and appreciate your advice
